Screen Recording of Bug

SUMMARY
Icons or shortcuts on the desktop, that are arranged in a row, only highlight the first icon in the row when the mouse enters from the left side. 


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Create two or more icons on the desktop
2. Arrange the icons into a row
3. Move the mouse from left to right over the row of icons

OBSERVED RESULT
Only the first icon in the row shows a hover highlight. No highlight is shown as the mouse cursor moves over the other icons in the row.

EXPECTED RESULT
Icons on the desktop will show highlights regardless of the direction that mouse enters it
